Functional Description

Purpose
The purpose of this function is to edit a scale field and determine if it is in the Scale Master
Table (F05103).  If the scale is in the table, return the description.  If the scale is not in the table,
set an error.

This function will most likely be used as an edit rule attached to a data dictionary item.  It can
also be called from forms to validate a scale field if the edit rule is not set up at the data
dictionary level.

When using this function, the value of the scale is passed in both the Scale field and the Behavior
Edit String field.  The description is returned through the description field.

• If the fetch is successful, pass the scale description back through the description parameter

•
  If the fetch is not successful, set error 124O - Scale Not Found
